Thanks for the Donald pic. He made the list twice!!!
Did you have very many of these?
I am not sure if I got them in the year that they were #1 but I did have a Rubik's Cube, Cabbage Patch Doll, some Care Bears, a Nintendo, some Pound Puppies, and Pictionary. I may have also had the Dukes of Hazard car?!
